Could environmental factors be a potential explanation? AKA_Monet mentioned something about environmental factors in an earlier post. We were discussing a different topic, but could this also fall under environmental factors?
I do not think in an of itself, the actual "piece" or construct DNA that is truly the "vaccinating part" has ANYTHING to do with autism. But there IS precedence that an "outside" piece of the construct could cause a severely lethal allergic reaction. It has to do with the one of the first gene therapy using the Adenoviral construct to cure Cystic Fibrosis by Dr. James Wilson. He risked ALOT to do this therapy that goes against UN human clinical trials. And the 15 year old boy he did the gene therapy in died a horrid death. Fortunately, the boy's father was a lawyer...

Autism's symptoms has been shown to be EXACERBATED by environment. As far as what is causing it, it could be too much lead or other minute items that we regularly do now and consume -- hayle, it could be that we have too much tech chit abound that fries our brains and gets transmitted to a developing fetus... Who knows?
